thank you....I've tried many LISP and ARX routine created and/or found over the net...but nothing to fix this stupid drawing...
the fact is,...that I'm trying to understand how the proxy is linked to the Layer,...or if it is related.

I've also tried LAYDEL,...seem to work, but PROXY stay alive.
If I use ALT+D to the Layer panel,...It do not delete layer.

there seem to be a lot of blocks in the dwg wich are also not purged, maybe they are somehow connected to the proxy entities?

[Andrea]

the only block who I can't purge is "_OBLIQUE"
my drawing is now reduced to 194ko, but still have 3423 Proxy entity in the drawing..

I've found

Code: [Select]

((-1 . <Entity name: 7ffffba6830>) (0 . "DICTIONARY") (330 . <Entity name: 7ffffba6820>) (5 . "3")
(100 . "AcDbDictionary") (280 . 1) (281 . 1) (3 . "ACAD_GEOGRAPHICDATA")
(360 . <Entity name: 7ffffba6840>) (3 . "ACAD_SORTENTS")
(360 . <Entity name: 7ffffb083f0>))

but can't able to remove this..XDATA.

but there is no _oblique in this dwg. this block is often used for dim style.
k.
EDIT
aa sorry. it was in original. it was used by STANDARD dim style. need to change to other and than purge without any problem.
k.

[Andrea]

was finaly able to purge it...by redefine the bloc and delete.
but still have PROXY crap.

[ronjonp]

Save as DXF 12 .. does not make round trip.

[kruuger]

[Andrea]

thank you Ron...

the fact is...
the original drawing contain lot of stuff,...who cannot be "DXFed" to prevent loosing some entity propreties.
Lot of these king of drawings here...

[Andrea]

check this Andrea. turn on your ribbon. what the he...

[Andrea]

Oops !?

maybe Hoora to fast..
its seem that PROXY object cannot be find with..

Code: [Select]

(ssget "_X" '((0 . "*PROXY*")))

but I cannot XREF in a new drawing..:\

[Andrea]

ok,...there is what I did...

I've copy all drawing from 0,0 to 1000,0
then, erase the first selection..
then move all drawing from 1000,0 to 0,0
then Purge all drawing.

seem to fix the issue.

but still that I do not know why.

[Crank]

You don't have to move:
- Make sure everything is visible
- ERASE ALL REMOVE CROSSING (select everything)
- PURGE

in the original file...I've lot of entities..
but you'Re right..I've to copy all 0,0 to 0,0 and Erase Previous.
then,..Purge.

[Crank]

I don't understand why you first have to use the COPY command and than erase previous: Use the original entities.
If the drawing is really big then you can first turn of the HIGHLIGHT.
